I got cold sores when I was a child, apparently from kissing my parents. as far as I know they do not have stds. I took a test once, they said I had herpes but that it was very difficult to tell if it was type 1 or 2 so they wouldn t do it. I spent some time with a girl.... who it turned out had type 2... we did not have intercourse, only hand stimulation. I have never had any genital symptoms. but after that encounter I did get some blisters on my finger that sound suspiciously like herpes 2. I asked a doctor about it but had no symptoms at that time for him to examine. he did look at my genitials and said I had no indication of any std. he also said it is very unlikely that I could get herpes on my finger. I have not had any symptoms at all in many years. is it possible that I could infect a woman through intercourse? what should I do about this?
